Secular Sunday: Joe Hoffmann
The Secular Sunday platform addresses represent an alternative to traditional religious services and are designed to encourage ethical reflection and practice. They promise an innovative look at virtues, values, and the basic human decencies of love, honor, tolerance, and respect.
Dr. Hoffmann holds graduate degrees in theology from Harvard University and a PhD in Christian Origins from Oxford University, where he was Senior Scholar of St. Cross College (1980-1983). Hoffmann was the founder of the Oxford Centre for the Critical Study of Religion, and his translations and reconstructions of the writings of the Church's earliest critics, Celsus (1987), Porphyry's Against the Christians: The Literary Remains (1994), and Julian's Against the Galileans (2004) have become fundamental texts for the study of the pagan context of early Christianity.
